DIY Hand Warmers

Hand Warmers How-to:

Supplies:

Flannel fabric, 4″ or 5″ squares

Rice, long or short grain works great

Funnel

Step 1: Turn fabric squares inside out and sew a single straight stitch along all four sides leaving a 1 inch opening.

Step 2: Leave a 1 inch opening. This will be used to pour the rice in.

Step 3: Turn the fabric right side out.

Use a funnel to insert rice into the pouch. Fill it approximately 3/4 full. You could even add some essential oils at this point if you’d like. To finish it off, hand stitch the opening.

Voila! Easy peasy, right?! Tie with a ribbon for an easy gift idea. Don’t forget to tell the recipient to place them in the microwave for 30 seconds to warm them up.
